Deadline is reporting that The Storyteller anthology series will be reimagined by Fremantle Media, The Jim Henson Company, and author/TV writer-producer Neil Gaiman (American Gods, Good Omens).
The Storyteller will be produced by Fremantle in association with The Jim Henson Company.
Written and executive produced by Gaiman, the updated version of The Storyteller will create a mystical world combining various fairy tales and folklore.
Inspired by his daughter Lisa’s university studies in folklore and mythology, Jim Henson created the original version of The Storyteller in 1987 and directed multiple episodes, with Oscar winner Anthony Minghella writing all the episodes.
